Advanced technical ceramics - Mechanical properties of monolithic ceramics at room temperature - Part 1: Determination of flexural strength
This part of EN 843 specifies methods for determining the nominal flexural strength of advanced monolithic technical ceramic materials at ambient temperature. The available loading geometries are three- and four-point flexure, using rectangular section test pieces of two prescribed geometries: 20 mm support span (A) and 40 mm support span (B).
NOTE This part of EN 843 differs from ISO 14704 (see Bibliography) in respect of span A (not included in the ISO version), the absence of the 30 mm span option, and the required use of a fully articulating test jig.
The test applies to materials with grain size less than 200 µm.
The test prescribes four categories of surface finish applied to the test pieces:
I: as-fired or annealed after machining;
II: standard finishing by grinding;
III: standard finishing by lapping/polishing;
IV: machined using agreed grinding procedures and material removal rates.
Hochleistungskeramik - Mechanische Eigenschaften monolithischer Keramik bei Raumtemperatur - Teil 1: Bestimmung der Biegefestigkeit
Dieser Teil von EN 843 legt Verfahren zur Bestimmung der nominellen Biegefestigkeit von monolithischen keramischen Hochleistungswerkstoffen bei Raumtemperatur fest. Die möglichen Beanspruchungsanord¬nungen sind die Drei Punkt- und die Vier Punkt-Biegung, wobei Probekörper mit rechteckigem Querschnitt zweier vorgeschriebener Ausführungsformen verwendet werden: Auflagerabstand (A) 20 mm und Auflager¬abstand (B) 40 mm.
ANMERKUNG Dieser Teil von EN 843 ist verschieden von ISO 14704 (siehe Literaturhinweise) hinsichtlich Auflagerabstand A (in der ISO Fassung nicht enthalten), der fehlenden Auswahlmöglichkeit für einen Auflagerabstand von 30 mm und der geforderten Anwendung einer mehrdimensional voll bewegbaren Einspanneinrichtung.
Diese Prüfung gilt für Werkstoffe mit einer Korngröße kleiner 200 µm.
Die Prüfung legt vier Kategorien für die Oberflächen Endbearbeitung der Probekörper fest:
I: as fired oder nach der Bearbeitung geglüht;
II: Standard Endbearbeitung durch Schleifen;
III: Standard-Endbearbeitung durch Läppen/Polieren;
IV: bearbeitet nach vereinbarten Schleifverfahren und Materialabtragsraten.
Céramiques techniques avancées - Propriétés mécaniques des céramiques monolithiques à température ambiante - Partie 1: Détermination de la résistance en flexion
La présente partie de l'EN 843 décrit des méthodes pour la détermination de la résistance nominale à la flexion des céramiques techniques avancées monolithiques à température ambiante. Les modes de mise en charge les plus courants sont de type flexion trois points et flexion quatre points, et les éprouvettes utilisées sont de section rectangulaire avec deux types de configuration A et B, dont les distances entre appuis externes sont respectivement de 20 mm et 40 mm.
NOTE La présente partie de l'EN 843 présente par rapport à l'ISO 14704 (voir Bibliographie) les différences suivantes : la distance entre appuis A (non comprise dans la version de l'ISO), l'absence de l'option de la distance entre appuis de 30 mm et l'utilisation requise d'un dispositif d'essai totalement articulé.
L'essai s'applique aux matériaux de granulométrie inférieure à 200 µm.
Il prescrit, pour les éprouvettes, quatre catégories d'état de surface :
I : brut de cuisson ou recuit après usinage ;
II : procédés standard de finition par rectification ;
III : procédés standard de finition par rodage/polissage ;
IV : usiné suivant des mode opératoires de rectification et des taux d'enlèvement de matériaux convenus.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
nominal flexural strength
maximum nominal stress supported by the material at the instant of failure when loaded in linear elastic bending
3.2
three-point flexure
means of bending a beam test piece whereby the test piece is supported on bearings near its ends and a central
force is applied
3.3
four-point flexure
means of bending a beam test piece whereby the test piece is supported on bearings near its ends and is
loaded equally at two positions symmetrically disposed about the centre of the supported span
3.4
quarter-point flexure
four-point flexure (3.3) wherein the loading bearings are each one-quarter of the support span from the
support bearings
4 Significance and use
This test is intended to be used for material development, quality control, characterization and design data
acquisition purposes. The strength level determined by the test is calculated on the basis of linear elastic bending
of a thin beam on the assumption that the material being tested is elastically homogeneous and isotropic, and
shows linear (Hookean) stress-strain behaviour.
The result obtained from a strength test is determined by a large number of factors associated with the
microstructure of the material, the surface finishing procedure applied in preparation of the test pieces, the size
and shape of the test piece, the mechanical function of the testing apparatus, the rate of load application and the
relative humidity of the ambient atmosphere. As a consequence of the brittle nature of ceramics, there is usually a
considerable range of results obtained from a number of nominally identical test pieces. These factors combined
mean that caution in the interpretation of test results is required. For many purposes, and as described in this
European Standard, the results of strength tests may be described in terms of a mean value and a standard
deviation. Further statistical evaluation of results is required for design data acquisition, and may be desirable for
other purposes (see EN 843-5).
This method places closely defined restrictions on the size and shape of the test piece and on the function of the
test apparatus in order to minimize the errors that can arise as a consequence of the test method.
NOTE The basis for the choice of dimensions and tolerances of test pieces and of the requirements of the test-jig
may be found in reference [4].
All other test factors are required to be stated in the test report (see Clause 9) in order to allow inter-comparison of
material behaviours. It is not possible to rigorously standardize particular surface finishes, since these are not
absolutely controllable in mechanical terms. The inclusion of a standard grinding procedure (see 6.3) as one of
the surface finish options in this method is intended to provide a means of obtaining a minimum amount of
residual grinding damage in the test material.
The extrapolation of flexural strength data to other geometries of stressing, to multiaxial stressing, to other rates of
stressing or to other environments should be viewed with caution.
The origin of fracture in a flexural test can be a valuable guide to the nature and position of strength-limiting
defects. Fractography of test pieces is highly recommended. In particular, the test may identify fracture origins as
being edge defects (caused by edge preparation), surface defects (caused by surface preparation), or internal
defects (caused by manufacturing inhomogeneities such as pores, large grains, impurity concentrations etc.). Not
all advanced monolithic technical ceramics are amenable to clear fractography.
5 Apparatus
5.1 Test jig
The test jig shall be capable of either three-point or four-point flexure and functioning as specified below in order
to minimize misalignments, twist and frictional forces applied to the test piece.
NOTE 1 The precise test jig design is not specified, only the function.
Schematic arrangements of the test jig function are shown in Figure 1 a) for three-point flexure, and Figure 1 b) for
four-point flexure.
The test piece shall be supported on two bearing edges perpendicular to its length. The outer support bearing
edges shall be parallel rollers of diameter approximately 1,5 times the test piece thickness. Diameters of between
2,2 mm and 2,5 mm (for span A - see 6.2) or between 4,5 mm and 5,0 mm (for span B - see 6.2) are
recommended. The rollers shall be capable of rolling outward on flat support surfaces. One of the rollers shall
additionally be capable of rotating about an axis parallel to the length of the t
